Long-distance hiking

Long-distance hiking in Pitztal in Tyrol

Kaunergrat circular route

Starting point of the seven-day tour is the Nature Park Centre at Piller Höhe. From there, five stages will take you around the alpine Kaunergrat ridge, partly on tranquil trails over alpine pastures and partly via steep high-alpine paths. The nights are spent in simple alpine huts and mountain shelters along the marked route. Please be aware that those taking on the whole circular tour should have endurance to complete daily stages of approximately seven hours. Those active hikers will be rewarded with secluded paths through pristine nature, clear mountain lakes, lush green alpine meadows full of herbs and the warm Tyrolean hospitality of the rustic mountain huts. The Kaunergrat circular route path may also be explored in shorter three- or five-day variants.
